Gravity: LTC4316 I2C Address Shifter Module for I2C Conflict Resolution

The Gravity LTC4316 I2C Address Shifter Module is a dedicated expansion board designed to resolve address conflicts on shared I2C buses. It allows makers, educators, and robotics developers to connect multiple identical sensors or peripherals to a single controller effortlessly. With hardware-level address translation, it simplifies multi-sensor setups without demanding complex software workarounds.

Hardware I2C address translation

The onboard LTC4316 chip provides real-time hardware translation of I2C addresses. This allows identical devices sharing fixed addresses to communicate reliably on the same bus without data collisions.

Multi-sensor bus integration

Easily connect multiple identical I2C sensors to a single development board. This setup eliminates the need for software multiplexing or extra microcontroller communication ports.

DIP switch offset configuration

Address offsets can be selected directly using the onboard DIP switches. This provides a quick and dependable hardware method for modifying target addresses.

Gravity standard interface

Designed for integration with standard Gravity connectors to ensure clean and straightforward wiring. It connects seamlessly into student, hobbyist, and prototyping projects.
